When asked about Erik ten Hag’s future with Manchester United after Manchester United winning the FA CUP, Sir Jim Ratcliffe provides a chain reaction that speaks volumes. No body was ever expecting this answer 😳🙀

Following his team’s victory, Ratcliffe was approached by a journalist but chose to ignore the question and walked away. The inquiry was about whether Chelsea’s situation with Mauricio Pochettino might offer Manchester United a solution amid uncertainty surrounding Erik ten Hag’s future. Sir Jim Ratcliffe, now a co-owner of Manchester United, refused to comment on ten Hag’s future after the FA Cup final.

Ten Hag led Manchester United to a win against Manchester City at Wembley, securing his second trophy in two years. Despite this success, doubts linger about his position. The 54-year-old made a final plea to retain his job after the FA Cup win, though a decision was expected after the final, coinciding with Ratcliffe’s recent minority takeover and subsequent changes.

Ratcliffe, who is set to make the final decision, has been linked with other managerial candidates like Mauricio Pochettino and Kieran McKenna. When questioned on Saturday, he chose not to respond.

Ratcliffe was seen at Wembley congratulating ten Hag and his team before the trophy presentation. While walking through the mixed zone with Sir Dave Brailsford, Ratcliffe stopped when a reporter called out to him. As the reporter asked about ten Hag’s future, Ratcliffe turned and walked away without answering.

Ten Hag, speaking after the game, expressed uncertainty about his future, attributing a disappointing season to injuries and emphasizing his commitment to improving the team. He reflected on the progress made since his arrival and highlighted the importance of winning trophies, expressing pride in his team’s FA Cup victory.
